        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Broadway fans around the world will soon be able to stream the works of <strong>Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber</strong> on YouTube — for free.</p><p>The series, dubbed <strong>&#8220;The Shows Must Go On!,&#8221;</strong> will stream weekly to help ease cabin fever during the <strong>coronavirus quarantine</strong>. The musical theater legend plans to air some of his most celebrated — and reviled — shows.</p><p>The first installment begins at 2 p.m. Friday with Lloyd Webber&#8217;s 2000 revival of 1991&#8217;s &#8220;Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,&#8221; starring Donny Osmond, Maria Friedman, Richard Attenborough and Joan Collins, available for a 48-hour period.</p><p>The next production, scheduled for April 10, will be the 2012 rock musical &#8220;Jesus Christ Superstar,&#8221; featuring stars Tim Minchin, the Spice Girls&#8217; Melanie C and Chris Moyles.</p><p>Dates for some of his most notable shows, such as &#8220;Cats,&#8221; &#8220;Evita&#8221; and &#8220;Phantom of the Opera,&#8221; have not yet been announced, but fans can <a href="https://twitter.com/PhantomOpera/status/1245018777823129601?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">see an orchestra from London&#8217;s West End perform</a> &#8220;All I Ask of You&#8221; alongside Lloyd Webber, who recently <a href="https://twitter.com/OfficialALW/status/1240670207930249216?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tweeted himself playing the song</a> while in isolation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on YouTube.</p><div class="embed-wrapper twitter"><div class="embed-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">&quot;Stay safe, that&#39;s all we ask of you.&quot; The entire orchestra at <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/PhantomLondon?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#PhantomLondon</a> have recorded this beautiful video response for <a href="https://twitter.com/OfficialALW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@OfficialALW</a> to show their support from isolation. <strong>https://t.co/b9vjNyiq7u</strong> <strong>pic.twitter.com/dx8f6gG2Ny</strong></p><p>&mdash; The Phantom Of The Opera (@PhantomOpera) <a href="https://twitter.com/PhantomOpera/status/1245018777823129601?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 31, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></div><p>The composer won&#8217;t be just playing the hits. In a video announcement to fans, he says he won&#8217;t overlook his musical disaster &#8220;By Jeeves,&#8221; a show based on the fictional works by P.G. Wodehouse that originally premiered in 1975 — and was cut short after only a month at London&#8217;s Her Majesty&#8217;s Theatre. The production fared somewhat better after reviving with rewrites in 1996.</p><p>While &#8220;The Show Must Go On!&#8221; is a free streaming series, Lloyd Webber is encouraging watchers to donate to organizations that support theater workers during the pandemic, such as <strong>Acting For Others</strong>, <strong>Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS</strong> and the <strong>Actors Benevolent Fund</strong>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
